N.C. Central’s road struggles persist in men’s basketball.
Nick Chasten (pictured) scored 20 points and C.J. Wilkerson added 16, but the Eagles came up short in a 70-58 loss at High Point.
The Eagles (2-11) fell to 0-10 on the road, leaving new coach LeVelle Moton still looking for his first win against a Division I opponent.
Eugene Harris had 14 points to lead four players in double figures for the Panthers (5-6). Cruz Daniels added 12 points while Nick Barbour and Jairus Simms added 10 each.
Michael Glasker chipped in 11 points for NCCU.
